be nice to the security guards, they are gems..... truly. very helpful, very personable.. and honestly I think a bit taken for granted. Kanokwan's place is clean, neat, a bit smaller than you first realize in the photos.. but exactly as described. if youre from the USA, the space will feel small at first, and then after a few days the functionality of it all comes into its own. the washer is a god send... dont pack as much as you think you need... you can wash daily. I did.. WHEN I stay again... I'll carry half of what I brought this last trip. rent a scooter.. I recommend BSR Rentals... tour around a bit. Soi 71 has a great food area.. go find it... Tesco is a great place to grab groceries, and 711 is always around the corner. try out the restaurant 64 about 70 meters towards sukumvhit.. food is amazing.. and well priced. I found it my last night in town. had I found it my first night. I would have eaten there a few times a week during my month long stay.
